A whole new 30 days..
Today marks the beginning of a new 30 days on program. I just got on the scale this morning and think I have been sabotaging myself. I am at an all time high weight and am feeling pretty miserable about myself today. I am beyond fat, I am pretty much disgusting and disgusted with myself for allowing this to happen. I'm such an emotional eater and the past weeks have been pretty bad with me not sleeping and just life. Halloween candy has been eaten, junk food has replaced my fruits and veggies, diet cokes replace my regular water. I'm going to take charge and use these next 30 days to try and reset myself. It will most definitely be challenging beyond challenging but I'm hoping to do it. Maybe if I start backwards, saying this is Day 30 of my challenge and then count down to 1. I also signed up for facebook group challenge of exercising at least 20 minutes a day for 6 days a week with my friend Christie in MA. I can do this...

Just for Mary
Mary this is for you...
So I have been not blogging like I really wanted to... Life happened I guess, so I'll fill you in on what's been going on.
Saturday morning I woke up got on the scale and realized that I had to do something. I was 248 and that's 2 pounds away from 250. Also the day before my sister told me she had lost 50 pounds, so I'm thinking that she is close to weighing what I weigh if not weighing less. You know that had me thinking, I am not going to be the largest one in the family because as of now Greg is now weighing in the 240s which means yes my husband is probably smaller than I am. So I bit the bullet and went to the 10:30 meeting.
Like an alcoholic I had to admit there was a problem and of course it is not alcohol, but food. Ms. Jane was very supportive and the meetings topic was right on because it was about setting a goal for summer. And it had to be a specific attainable goal, not I want to lose weight or I will track. So I thought to myself okay....
Goal 1 - I will exercise for at least 20 minutes 3 days.
Goal 2 - I will track 5 days this week.
So far so good, today has been my only slip up and it is because of the bereavement buffet, which I cannot even begin to calculate the points. But I was conscious of what I ate and feel like I did good.
I did come home and eat some bananas, strawberries, and peaches from the Yo'Nana.
Tonight I ate boiled shrimp and crabs, not too much and then again some watermelon.
I'm going back to a meeting on Friday or Saturday morning and hopefully I will see something happen. I know that I have to believe in myself and know that I can and will do this!

So far no exercise... I'm posting this a day late, but figured I'd check in for the day...
Yesterday started off okay,
breakfast consisted of two waffles with nutella and peanut butter with syrup, 12 points...
I took the girls to the Discovery Center in Hammond and we ate lunch at LaCaretta's. I had tons of chips and salsa with cheese dip and then had a burrito covered with cheese dip with rice. Did I say it was yummy. For dinner I had the other half of my super burrito.
On a good note I did eat a bowl of kiwi and watermelon and found my Diet Snapple at Big Lots
Not a bad day but not a good day...

Day 1 - Got on the scale and it said 244.2 - damn when did I get so heavy... There are just weights that stick out in my mind and my scale is going in the wrong direction. Today starts a new month, a month of activities for my girls, a month of no school, a month to dedicate to myself.
My goals for today:
1. track on ww.com
2. exercise for at least 20 minutes
3. blog about my day tonight
I'm taking the girls to chuck e cheese, so I already know pizza is involved in this day but I can control it.

I decided I needed something to keep me on track and focused. My weight has gotten to be out of control once again and I am going to attempt a new means of keeping myself on track. For the next thirty days I am going to track and blog about it. Tomorrow morning I will weigh in, measure myself, and then tomorrow night I will blog about it. I've read research that said that writing down your goal and seeing it over and over will make it that much easier to accomplish. Let's see if that research was right... 30 days... We'll call this the 30 DAY CHALLENGE.... I can and will do this! JTP
